<p>[QUOTE=&quot;scottishmoney, post: 1192623, member: 12789&quot;]I don&#039;t doubt the authenticity of the note - but the signatures and date appear to have been added much later - and are definitely suspect.&nbsp; There are often &quot;remainders&quot; that were unissued for whatever reason that were unsigned, undated etc that came into the market long after these notes would have circulated.&nbsp; The 1876 date is a giveaway also, for the most part unless they were using very old printed notes for a long time and evading Federal law by issuing them and not paying the obligatory 10% tax - the note was much more likely issued in the late 1850&#039;s or early 1860&#039;s.&nbsp; I have known people that would buy old Canal Bank remainders and sign them with fountain pens to give them some &quot;originality&quot; when in fact all they were doing was depreciating the collector value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
